Enhanced Antibacterial Activity of Hen Egg-White Lysozyme against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli due to Protein Fibrillation.

Biomacromolecules, 2021
Antibacterial agents with broad-spectrum antibacterial properties have always been in large demand. Lysozyme, a common and inexpensive protein, is widely used in food safety and biomedical applications for antibacterial purposes.

Plant lysozymes

1996
Structural and functional features of plant lysozymes are reviewed. All lysozymes also have chitinase activity, but not all plant chitinases are also lysozymes. However, for many chitinases it is not yet known if they also possess lysozyme activity. Enzymes with lysozyme activity occur in different, structurally unrelated, families of chitinases. Plant

Use of spectroscopic and zeta potential techniques to study the interaction between lysozyme and curcumin in the presence of silver nanoparticles at different sizes

Journal of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics, 2018
This article describes, for the first time, the effect of three different sizes of silver nanoparticles on the binding of curcumin to lysozyme as examined by spectroscopic and zeta potential techniques at physiological conditions.

Diamond Nanogel-Embedded Contact Lenses Mediate Lysozyme-Dependent Therapeutic Release

open access: yesACS Nano, 2014
Temporarily implanted devices, such as drug-loaded contact lenses, are emerging as the preferred treatment method for ocular diseases like glaucoma. Localizing the delivery of glaucoma drugs, such as timolol maleate (TM), can minimize adverse effects ...

Lysozyme Substrates

1996
The natural substrate of lysozyme is the rigid layer of bacterial cell walls, the murein (peptidoglycan), which is a gigantic polymer of (GlcNAc-MurNAc)n polysaccharide strands crosslinked through short peptide bridges at the lactyl groups of the muramic acid residues.

Bacterial lysozymes

1996
Lysozymes are found in many bacteria that are surrounded by a murein-(peptidoglycan) containing cell wall. Their physiological function for the bacteria is still a matter of debate. On the one hand they can autolyse the cell, on the other hand they may have an essential role during enlargement and division of the cell wall by the controlled splitting ...

Phage lysozymes

1996
Bacteriophage genomes encode lysozymes whose role is to favour the release of virions by lysis of the host cells or to facilitate infection. In this review, the evolutionary relationships between the phage lysozymes are described. They are grouped into several classes: the V-, the G-, the lambda- and the CH-type lysozymes.

Insect lysozymes

1996
Lysozymes, related to the chicken-type lysozymes in vertebrates, are ubiquitous components in the bacteriolytic armamentarium of insects. The enzyme is normally present in the blood, and together with other bactericidal factors lysozyme is often strongly induced when the insect is infected.

Lysozyme revisited

Structure
Lysozyme is a model system for crystallographers. In this issue of Structure, Ramos et al. report atomic resolution neutron structures of lysozyme, which unambiguously show the protonation states and hydrogen-bonding networks of the active site. This resolves mechanistic questions that have been debated for decades and provides a unique view to a ...
